Chapter 229: Witchcraft Summoning (1st Update)
Salem, which is a small town located in the upper north corner of Boston.
Getting off the plane, Anna walks into the woods, followed by Coulson, who carries a small team of agents carrying lead boxes.
There was a mist in the woods, visibility was less than five meters, and the trees were so thick that your feet were one foot deep and one foot shallow on the ground.
Oops... Anna stumbled, her little chubby hand climbed on the stone, feeling that her hand was wet, and if she looked closely, it turned out to be a tombstone, which was broken.
Clapped his hands, took out a tissue, wiped it, and bowed his head.
That one is at your feet.
Hey... It turned out to be a cemetery, and Anna's eyebrows drooped.
There were tombstones everywhere on the side, some with missing corners, some toppling, and some split in half.
"This was originally an old cemetery, and ten years ago, the city government re-planned one, and in the north, this side was deserted!" Little Black Sister said.
Salem belongs to the New England region and has a humid continental climate, similar to the climate of the United Kingdom.
One agent pulled out a stun baton, poked it into the ground, dragged out a viper, and threw it to the side.
On the tombstone, the crow called, crunched, and was not afraid of people.
It looks like a spell-casting vibe.
Anna got bored and waved her hand away, and the crows were clearer.
A vague figure could be seen.
Witches, the goal of Anna's trip, took two more steps and saw three witches, among whom old Jenny was standing on the side.
The leader witch pulled a handful of sand from her bosom and threw it into the air, and in a whisper, the fog dissipated.
At this time, many wizards had gathered in the woods, including witches and wizards, and they seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
Old Jenny stood up and pointed to the person who sprinkled the sand and introduced, "This is the head of the New Orleans Witch Order!" ”
Anna nodded, she represented S.H.I.E.L.D. today.
Then Old Jenny introduced them one by one, and Anna learned that witches are also divided into different forces, including white witchcraft, black witchcraft, necromancy, etc., more than ten categories, large and small.
Fifteen witches were summoned by Old Jenny, all of whom were said to be heads and faces, one of whom was Diana, a descendant of Brigitte Bishop.
Speaking of Brigitte Bishop, whether it is a history book or a mythological story, she is a very famous figure, and she was the first to stand up against the vampire Dracula.
And rightfully so.
Hacked!
But what kind of character is Dracula, he is the most powerful of the living vampires, and in the comics, he fights against Midnight's Suns, including Doctor Strange.
It is worth noting that Diana is also a lecturer in history at the University of Oxford, very young, less than thirty years old.
Anna shakes hands with Diana Bishop.
Diana spoke with a London accent, word by word, with a trill, which was very interesting.
It's a pity, Anna looked at the female lecturer, and in her heart, Anna said sorry to her.
At Jenny's request, the wizard needs a medium to cast a spell, and Anna brings Osborne, the Green Goblin, up.
In the woods, the wizard had found a clearing, more than ten meters in diameter, which had been specially leveled and cut down stumps.
The leader of the witch group took out quicklime powder, first drew a large circle around the open space, and then drew a polygon in the large circle, fifteen corners, which were estimated to be used for positioning.
Agent placed the lead box in the center of the circle.
Anna watched as the wizard sat upright, and old Jenny took an iron box out of her bag and opened it with a disgusting smell of blood.
Looking at other wizards, their expressions are not strange, it seems that there are a lot of messy things that are wizards.
On the contrary, Bishop glanced at the iron box more, and his expression was a little surprised: "What blood?" ”
"Chicken blood!"
Chicken blood - Anna scoffed, the chicken blood has not coagulated until now, the blood of Lady Hydra, right?
Old Jenny poured the blood from the iron box to the ground and circled Osborne in the lead box.
Anyway, everyone is acting, and Anna doesn't talk anymore.
Anna put her hands behind her back, she felt that this was a good leader, opened the communication, and discussed with Director Fury and the others to make sure everyone was ready.
Everything is ready and the ceremony begins.
Fifteen wizards joined hands and began to chant, but Anna could not understand it, and she watched as the wizards swayed back and forth, from side to side, around the lead box.
Anna felt that she was shaking the bottle in the same position.
Thinking of the bottle, Anna took it out of her satchel, she felt a little sad, let's take a few sips!
Picked up the bottle and shook it up and down, left and right, and the wizard followed suit, and shook it from side to side, and sucked, and squeaked, and the wizard also chanted, balabala.
It's very rhythmic!
According to Jenny, for wizards, death is just a new beginning, and they have built an afterlife paradise, where all wizards, after death, will float to a place to help future generations.
And Salem, in the eyes of wizards, is the Immortal Sanctuary, where the power of natural magic is borrowed, and the wizard's ability can increase exponentially.
"Anna, do you feel anything?" Coulson asked.
Anna took a sip while holding the bottle and put it down: "What, is it cool?" ”
Anna felt that Coulson seemed to be susceptible and could make a fuss about anything.
It's a little strange - the grove is full of Sisusu.
Anna stood on the tombstone, which was too slippery, so she took out a tissue and paddled it.
Then there was an exclamation from the agent on the side, and the ground in the woods rolled up: "It's a spider, an eight-legged spider!" ”
Anna watched the swarm of spiders under the tombstone, rushing over like a tide, wave after wave, around the tombstone, crawling straight into the circle, climbing up the wizard's feet, calves, knees...... Climb all the way to the top of their heads.
The lead box is also crawling with spiders.
Chills!
Anna shuddered, she felt scared, disgusting.
"No, I remember the witchcraft we studied, and there is no such thing!" Little Black Sister said.
Anna felt that Little Black Girl was honest, but unfortunately, most of the people present, including Coulson, were kept in the dark.
In the communication, Rumlow said that the ambush was ready, and he was waiting for Anna's order.
It's not the moment of truth yet.
The spell was pronounced faster and faster, and the words could barely be distinguished at the back, and Anna heard only a loud noise, and the wizards swung louder, smaller and less frequently.
Looking at the center, the head of the witch group opened his eyes, looking a little anxious, and his eyes told Anna that the head of the witch group wanted to speak, but the result was still chanting a spell, trying to stand up, but following the team to swing.
I don't know when, it is no longer the head of the witch group who controls the scene, but the old witch Jenny.
Now in the wizarding group, the only ones who are awake are the head of the witch group and Bishop.
It seems that the most powerful witchcraft is Bishop, and she is resisting.
The only discord in the field.
In terms of tempo, Bishop is always one beat behind.
Syllable... Anna put down the bottle, and the wizarding group protruded, and in the middle of the circle, blood floated.
